Anyone had an ablation for lower back pain

I still have the same pain so far. I have heard that sometimes it takes time for an ablation to take effect. I had high hopes that this would take pain away at least for a while. I guess I’ll be going back to the neurologist at pain clinic.

I have had several ablations. I experienced about a week to ten days to feel the full affect. God bless you, brotherchuckles80

It does take some time before you feel some relief. I’ve had 2 ablations on L4/5. One lasted 16 months the other is still helping and it’s been 14 so far. However my husband had it done on L3/4 and it didn’t help much. It’s really individualized therapy works on some and not others.
